Good man with gun kills neighbor for feeding deer.

A few good men can make a difference. Not this one who never had a criminal record before murdering his neighbor.

Glad he didn't live next door to me!

Gets worse. The murderer climbed out of a basement window with his buckshot loaded 12 gauge. His wife was screaming for blood, "Shoot! Shoot! Shoot again!" according to witnesses.

The murderers son had made the usual threats as well. Something along the lines of I'm going to burn down your house with you in it after I break your arms and legs so you can't even crawl out. Pretty much the usual Double Dog Dare you not to move out of the country.

Hall County Commissioner Craig Lutz flip flops on property rights

I don't regret my wasted youth. I regret all the time spent around Commissioner Lutz.

Here he goes again with his political flip flops.

When property in Flowery Branch would come up for re-zoning, he was always for business rezonings often saying, People have a right to do whatever they want with their property.

I even remember one of his blog posts saying something like, I ignore people who want no change. They don't matter.

Now he flip flops again. He doesn't want any property owners in Hall County to have an 'adult business,' whatever that might mean.

Guns in bars. Okay. Guns in Churches. Okay. No conflict with private property rights.

Penises and vaginas on private property? Oh Gawd we can't have that. Next, he'll be passing a law that we can't have more than 11 people gathered in one home at a time. If you don't get that remark, jump back to the efforts to have him recalled.

He claimed the recall effort was harassment. Next is making sure no jury of his peers meet in private?

Here's the link to Access North Georgia's story on preventing penis envy.

Guns on campus, Arkansas style. It's illegal there.

So we have the police checking out a college students who is asleep in his car. Well, he's sleeping off some binge drinking.

The car gets searched. Is there probable cause just because he's drunk? Yeah. We don't know if he's just drunk. Maybe he has a dead body in the trunk. Maybe more than booze. Doesn't really matter. He's on a college campus pass out in a car. No reasonable expectations of privacy.

What do we find? He's a concealed carry permit holder and has two guns with him.

Ops! No guns on campus. Against the law. Sort of like drinking and driving. Or, drinking yourself into a stupor in a public place.

So, back to that wonderful statement about how responsible gun owners have never been caught breaking the law.

Friday afternoon. You're a responsible gun owner. Saturday morning just another drunk with junk in the trunk.

I like the logic of the pro-gun kids.

Burden of proof. Everyone is responsible until convicted ...

Kill me. No. Kill me first. Kids want to see gun collection. Get laser sighted and killed.

So that thing again about how guns don't kill. People kill. Well, some dude with a laser sight just shot kid to death. Red dot on the forehead. Pause. Bang. And, oh no, officer. I never keep my guns loaded.

An 11-year old boy, looking at guns with his cousin and uncle, was shot and killed in Pike County Saturday afternoon. His uncle has been charged with criminal homicide.

The name of the child has not been released but police say he lived in Wayne County and attended the Wallenpaupack Area School District.

Police notified the school of the death and the school will have grief counselors available this week.

State Police were called at 5:35 p.m. Saturday to Keystone Drive in Wild Acres, a gated community in Delaware Township.

The home is owned by William Olm, the victim’s grandfather. The child was visiting the home where his uncle, Chad Olm, lives in a room in the basement next to the laundry room.

Hey, some day I want to live in my dad's basement next to the laundry room. Kids will think I'm so cool if I have a gun safe and no safe guns.
